Man Refuses To Be Older Than Seventeen

An "amusing incident was en- acted yesterday at the" ́Central Magistracy when Sin Sze-kau ap- peared before the magistrate, Mr. J. A. Fraser, on the charge of steal- ing some brass Attings.

The incident occurred when Sab- Inspector Madgwick informed his Worship that the defendant said that he was only seventeen year: old.

His Worship asked defendant if he, the acensed, expected, the court to believe that he was so young, when it was quite obvious that he was much older.

remained

However, defendant adamant and reiterated that he was only seventeen.

Defendant was a glass cutter employed by the Corney Glass Factory. He was seen to leave the building on December. 3 with the fittings, and he was arrested by a district watchman.

Mr. Fraser imposed a fine of $20 or three weeks in gaol.

It was alleged, that some time in June the defendant went to the compradore with a pass book of Mr. O'Connor's and purchased a The com- pradore did not ask for the money at the end of the month because he knew Mr. O'Connor well. But, at the end of the next month he presented the bill to Mr. O'Connor who refused to pay.

Mr. Brutton said that there were about 300 chickens together with some ducks and geese. It was only to be expected that there would be excreta and other forms of dirt around the poultry.
